Hi all, 
 
I have a component that installs an exe and registers it as a service. 
 
The problem I have is as soon as I add a user account to run under, it
fails with a generic "Error 1923. Service 'BATCHCONTROLLER1'
(batchserviceamtbatchcontroller_exe) could not be installed.  Verify
that you have sufficient privileges to install system services." error. 
 
I am pretty sure the problem ISN'T privileges as both the account I am
logged on as, and the account I am wanting to run the service under are
in the administrators group on the machine (A Virtual PC running Windows
2003 Server SP2) 
 
The XML is as follows and works perfectly without the Account and
Password options, but as soon as I add them it errors. 
 
    <DirectoryRef Id="batchservice">
      <Component Id="batchserviceamtbatchcontroller_exe"
Guid="7E9DACCD-F3E4-46A3-884D-6065C2199255" DiskId="1">
        <File Id="BatchServiceAmtBatchController_exe"
LongName="AmtBatchController.exe" Name="AMTBAT~1.EXE"
src="$(var.buildpath)\BatchService\AmtBatchController.exe" KeyPath="yes"
/>
        <ServiceInstall Id='BatchControllerServiceInstall'
DisplayName='BATCHCONTROLLER1' Name='batchserviceamtbatchcontroller_exe'
ErrorControl='normal' Start='auto' Type='ownProcess' Vital='yes'
Account="ServiceUser" Password="password1"/>
        <ServiceControl Id='BatchControllerServiceControl'
Name='batchserviceamtbatchcontroller_exe' Stop='both' Remove='uninstall'
Wait='yes' />
      </Component>
    </DirectoryRef>

 
Am I overlooking something obvious?
